Sword Armor

  1. Snarb (shadow)
  2. Vog (elemental)
  3. Skolver (piercing)
  4. Heavenly Iron (shadow)

Gun Armor

  1. Shadowsun(shadow)
  2. Nameless (elemental)
  3. Justifier(piercing)
  4. Deadshot(shadow)

Bomb Armor

  1. Mad Bomber (elemental)
  2. Bombastic (elemental)
  3. Merc demo (elemental)
  4. Volcanic (elemental)

For those who may be confused right now, the point that I'm trying to get across is that gunners armor and sword armor have at least 1 shadow armor 1 elemental and 1 piercing. So can someone explain to me why bomber armor has to be all elemental? It would be very appreciated if you could switch mad bomber to norm/shadow, and bombastic to norm/pierce.

Edit:
fixed nameless link
Added heavenly iron to sword armor list

Mad Bomber should be Shadow,

Mad Bomber should be Shadow, Bombastic and the preceding gear should be Pierce, and Merc/Volcanic stays as is.

Jelly is pointless armor. It

Jelly is pointless armor. It protects against piercing- get it, pointless?

^lol

jelly armor looks basically the same as bomber armor it has a few differences (ther than the color) its just a non weapon based armor (costume armor)

I completely agree, add more variety

That pun went in one ear and out the other... (oh god, I'm ashamed of making that joke)

Basically Jelly just has a ton of piercing defense, that's it's only advantage. It's not an armor suited to a certain loadout.
And, you may also want to notice, but swordsmen only have 3 sets of armor, while the other two classes have 4...

Bombastic going piercing would be epic, it would be the LD bomber set
Mad Bomber going shadow works because of the respective mats required to craft it

as a bomber, i can say that yes.. the sets are lacking a choice as far as type defence goes.

As for swordsmen gear laqcking a fourth set. Heavenly iron is kind of a swordie set, but its not that good and upgrades from angelic. i think giving it a fourth set that possibly grants sword CTR would be appropriate, even though the current sets fulfill most needs of swordsmen already~

thats my 2 cents

Got a point you have

@Enea:l You have a point but think of it this way if they were to make another what would they name it? the stats?
@Diamondshreddie: They could make a sword CTR armor set but if they were to do that itd be a must get and and the only way to balance that is to make it a pure normal armor. Another thing that hasn't been mentioned is that gunner armor has no SL gear don't get me wrong tho i don't think that gunner needs yet ANOTHER set of armor.
@any GM that may read this: There are many bombers in this game but with only our elemental armor its hard for us to survive in LD is hard for us to survive in FSC we may excel in IMF but that's just IMF its not a very fun place and doesn't have that much to gain from. and remember this is just a simple request not a dire demand all i ask is that it is incorporated into the game not now, just whenever you have the time to set it into a patch.

Hrmhrm...

To be fair, I consider Heavenly Iron a Sword set, which means 4 sets for everyone.

Another though may have arized in my mind

Since Sword and Gun armor have 2 shadow 1 elemental 1 piercing can we make Mercurial piercing/norm or piercing/elemental so bombers have 1 shadow 1 elemental 2 piercing

I think 2 elemental for bombers is fine. The majority of things you get hit by when you have a bomb above your head and your shield down is usually projectiles, which are primarily fired by gunpuppies. Not to mention most bombs are elemental and have an advantage against constructs, so that's what you'll be most frequently damage-bombing, not sure about statuses though, you can pretty much use them anywhere.

No, in this case you are wrong. The arsenal of bombs consists of 2 types Chemical and Battle. All of the chemical bombs do elemental damage if your target is standing on the bomb. We bomber fight every thing equally same as every one else. People who actually fight with bombs, well, use a few different types of bombs such as a Nitrome, RSS, DBB, and a chem bomb depending on the area

also when we are bombing we move slower than normal and when raising and setting bombs we become completely vulnerable to all yet remember we have to get close to every thing when we fight and we don't interrupt with our attacks (most of the time) its very unlikely for us to get hit by bullets but melee usually ends up giving us the most trouble.

and our damaging bombs are usually all normal

i didn't write this to make fun of you or to sound "pissy"

Ok fair enough.
But aren't constructs the most prominent monsters in the clockworks, that's why we have so many elemental weapons?

this saddens me

i put up this request 4 months ago it was a very reasonable request if you ask me evening out the armors for bombers and to my suprise instead of making the game better for the people who enjoy bombing we get our top bomb nerfed to the point to where its worthless and still no protection it seems as if OOO doesnt even want people bombing since they do so much to prevent us from having fair level with guns and swords
